Tracking Device
Our website utilizes your company's Tracking Device technology to secure your authorization for storing specific tracking devices in your browser and to document this process in compliance with data protection regulations. This technology is provided by your company GmbH, headquartered at Rübenkamp 32, 22305 Hamburg.
Upon visiting our website, a your company tracking device is saved in your browser to record the authorizations you've granted or revoked.
We employ your company's tracking device technology to manage and validate authorizations, which aligns with our legitimate interest under Article 6 (1) lit. f of the GDPR. Details on your right to object can be found in section 3 above.
Collected data will be retained until you request its deletion, manually delete the your company tracking device, or until the data storage purpose becomes obsolete. Mandatory legal retention periods remain unaffected.
Providing your personal data is neither legally nor contractually obligatory.
Understanding Tracking Devices
Tracking devices fall into two categories:
- Technically necessary (essential) tracking devices, ensuring fundamental website operations
- Technically non-essential tracking devices, supporting website performance
Some web pages use tracking devices, small text files stored on your computer by your browser. These files do not harm your device or contain viruses; instead, they enhance website usability, effectiveness, and security.
Most tracking devices are "session tracking devices," automatically deleted after your visit, while others persist until manually deleted. These tracking devices enable us to recognize your browser on subsequent visits.
You can manage tracking device acceptance in your browser settings, allowing tracking devices only in specific cases or disabling them entirely. Browser-specific information is available in the provided links.
Disabling tracking devices may impact website functionality. For detailed insights into tracking devices and their usage on this website, please consult our Tracking Device Tool accessible via the Privacy Policy.
Usage of Technically Necessary (Essential) Tracking Devices
We utilize tracking devices essential for providing expressly requested services by the user, storing the following data:
- Authorization management
- Current language selection
This processing is grounded in our legitimate interest in providing this information (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. F). Technical service providers support website operation and maintenance as our processors. Storage duration specifics are available in our Tracking Device settings.
Providing this personal data is neither legally nor contractually mandatory but essential for website service and functionality.
Usage of Technically Non-essential Tracking Devices
We also employ tracking devices analyzing user browsing behavior to enhance website efficiency and appeal. Processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR).
Technical service providers support website operation and maintenance as our processors. Additional details on recipients and tracking device functionality/storage duration can be found in our Tracking Device settings.
Providing your data is voluntary, based on your consent. However, full website functionality may be compromised without it. Consent withdrawal is possible at any time via the Tracking Device settings.
Functional Limitations sans Tracking Devices
You can access our website without tracking devices, but certain functions relying on tracking devices may be impaired if you've disabled their use or not provided consent.
While most internet browsers accept tracking devices by default, you can adjust these settings anytime. Note that some website features may be limited without tracking devices.
